Mediterranean Spot on Washington Will Open in Spring

A Mediterranean restaurant is under construction at 708 Washington Avenue, between Prospect Place and St. Marks Avenue. The owner said it’ll be opening this spring. He also noted that there will be tapas “with a Moroccan touch,” wine and beer, and it will be called Kimiya. This news first emerged over the summer at Brooklynian, with word that the restaurant would open in September or October. But after peeking in the other day, it was clear there’s still quite a bit of interior work that needs to be done before that can happen. GMAP
